[solved] Is it possible to get erlang docs in IEx yet?

With the introduction of EEP-48 I believe one of the goals is to have good interoperability between Elixir and Erlang docs by storing them in the same chunk of beam files.

I’m going to still create this post for anyone that wants to follow/vote that erlang issue.

Where Next?
